I noticed that Diego was ranked above Koscheck... I saw them fight. I saw Kos win.
Kos-Sanchez was boring as hell and was pretty much a draw. Therefore, we decided to take into account the fighter's OTHER bouts (of which there were many). It was clear that Sanchez should be ahead. If we based everything on head-to-head match ups instead of overall performances over a period of time, we'd be out of jobs.
I see that you have several former pride fighters ranked verry high. Do the lackluster performances of some fighters from pride to the ufc affect how you have them ranked.
Yes. Shogun and Cro Cop have lost considerable spots in the last few months.
